EarthDiverse: Art Appreciation Café (Thursdays in November, 7:00-8:30pm)
Kia ora,
Just a quick reminder that we’re running our Art Appreciation Café gatherings every Thursday in November, and we’d love for you to drop by and join the group! We meet from 7:00-8:30pm and there are two sessions remaining: Thur 21 November, and Thu 28 Nov.
Location: EarthDiverse Centre: 401 Anglesea Street, Hamilton CBD
(Note that we’re just a few shops north of the Hamilton Central Bus Station, and on the same side of the street. Entrance is on the left side of the building, upstairs, first floor. Plenty of off-street parking in front of and on the left side of the building.)
Come by and join us for some biscuits, tea/coffee, some great discussions about particular works of art, and make some new friends!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
